Thailand Police: Carradine Was Alone in Hotel

Thailand cops are saying there is no evidence that anyone was in the hotel room at the time of David Carradine's death.

Police say they reviewed surveillance footage outside Carradine's room and interviewed all of the hotel's staff. The officer leading the investigation said they have all but ruled out the possibility of foul play.

Police are now interviewing members of the film crew that were working with Carradine in Bangkok.

UPDATE: TMZ just confirmed the FBI has been contacted by the Carradine family. We're told the agency is now taking the required legal steps to see if Thai police want or need FBI assistance with the case.

52. I can understand why some people cannot believe or cannot comprehend a situation like this. It is not a normal way for someone to die.

As a sheriff dispatcher for 12+ years, I have taken several dead body calls. 2 of them turned into autoerotic asphyxiation deaths based on our coroner findings. Both were reported as suicides and in both cases ruled as accidental. One subject has found hanging in a closet. The other spent two days building the elaborate apparatus he attached himself to before he died. I did see the photos from each scene. Both these subjects were older men.

I felt very sorry for the families as they either had no idea, or they knew about this behavior for many years and are truly embarrased and upset when the cause of death was revealed, and that others outside the family now know about their loved one's proclivity.

I can understand what his family is going through and hope they can put this unfortunate incident behind them soon.

53. I think the ppl that are making these awful comments should be ashamed of thereselves. A man has died. A man that gave us lots of movies in the past, I love kill bill, I grew up with grasshopper. A family grieves, god knows none of you ppl have ever jacked off? DUMB ASSES. Its really hard to believe that there are such heartless ppl out there. I loved him and what ever turns up on this case I always will. And my heart goes out to his family. Also the foeiegn police are diffrent than american police they dont cover all the issues, thats a known fact. All they want to do is sweep it under the rug. God rest his soul.

54. A guy masturbating alone in Bangkok? I mean, that's like eating the bark off a tree at a gourmet picnic. You can do it, but why would you? That and the hands behind the back thing make this look suspicious. The Thai police can't be trusted - they are only trying to protect the tourist industry.

55. OK! If he did this himself, how did he tie his own hands behind his back after tying the rest of himself up? Can someone do the math? How do you tie yourself up in the manner he was tied up - then hang yourself up in a closet – then tie your hands behind your back. WOW, All by yourself. DAMN Kung Fu must be good!

56. Kung Fu played many roles over his years but it came back to his FU time after time.In CHINA today from 1995-99 hanging is the most common from of suicide 287,000 people died by hanging in those years alone and for every person who did ten more tryed to.A DEATH ERECTION a priapism can block some of the pain in death by hanging and it is common for a priapism to happen as the pressure the cerebellum pushs blood into the penis.A DEATH ERECTION can also happen at death in any male.EVEN damage to the brain or back can give a living person a priapism but that can be treated by doctors.In SAMUEL BECKETTS waiting for godot a priapism is joked about by hanging so for a older person who wants to have a erection it would not be a bad thing! and maybe he was unable to get one without the rope bells and so on?.The die with a erection is common and it is called a priapism as I have stated.My step father whom was under the care of two female nurses had a priapism on his death bed while on meds he was nearly in a coma and I thought they had messed with him when I wnet to see him but than after some study found that that is normal.While suicide sin`t a good thing it happens and it happens more in china than anywhere 287,000 from 1995-1999 so maybe he was trying to tell us something about suicide in china?.The PRIAPISM is normal and happens all the time at death and more in deaths by hanging than anyother form.A DEATH ERECTION so what! that is common he had a lifetime full of self mutilation that could have been abuse by some adult when he was a kid?.I THINK he was making a statement about the bad goverment in china and about those suicide rates NO one is talking about. he was trying to be a real master to open our eyes to the fact of life over there to make some good from his life of self given pain to over come the FU image of a old HUNG FU tv actor.Forget the penis it doesn`t matter and no one should be looking at a dead mans PRIAPISM anyway unless some crime has been done and it was`nt.

58. DAVID CARRADINE COMMENTS SAY IT ALL HERE: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3jJ1rGT8MfY&feature=email It's amazing what people are saying, but as usual, I still believe David Carradine staged his suicide to look like a sexual hanging game when in reality it was not, so they will collect big insurance bucks, just read Fox News FBI story... It's all crap, DAVID DIED BY HIS OWN HAND and to get monies to Annie and her kids he hung himself, as my father did, but with pills. All was surpressed and jumbled up so in the end we got the cash... and everyone was happy but ME! I know the real truth, most can't handle the truth, but face it It was not sexual with Carradine he was not a sexual creep, he loved his wife Annie, not the grubbing ex wives of his past... except the first and Linda... the rest were gold diggers, and what about BARBARA HERSHEY, whom he has a son named Tom Free Carradine with, I met him, he's a doll. Talk to him about David... He loved his family... he died for them. They will get monies ...but it was suicide!
